throat tone

throat-singing, also called overtone-singing, a range of singing styles in which a single vocalist sounds more than one pitch simultaneously by reinforcing certain harmonics (overtones and undertones) of the fundamental pitch.

Throat singing is often described as producing the sensation of more than one pitch at a time, i.e., the listener perceives two or more distinct musical notes while the singer is producing a single vocalisation.

Tone is what's known as the color or timbre of your singing voice. Every voice has a specific color, which can be described as warm, dark, or strident. Two singers singing the same song in the same key may sound different - the reason is tone.

These strong muscles are called 'constrictors' and help us swallow. But we don't want them constricting when we're singing; they need to be chilled out. You may also be able to hear if you're singing on your throat. The sound will be tinny, pinched, or harsh.

In linguistics, speech sounds that start in the throat, like the consonants k and g, are called guttural consonants, and there are even guttural languages which contain many guttural sounds.

The plain h and glottal stop (ʔ) are both glottal sounds. This means that they are made at the vocal cords, which are at the very bottom of the throat. By contrast, the back ḥ and pharyngeal stop (ʕ) are pharyngeal sounds.

Throats singing is sung in what is known as the subharmonic register. This is where the vocal chords sing one note in chest voice, but then also sing the same note one octave lower in subharmonic resonance.

Singing from your throat means taking shallow, fast breaths, while singing from your diaphragm means taking deep breaths from your chest. This reduced strain on the throat supports vocal chords and grants greater breath control and projection.

In literary terms, tone typically refers to the mood implied by an author's word choice and the way that the text can make a reader feel. The tone an author uses in a piece of writing can evoke any number of emotions and perspectives. Tone can also span a wide array of textual styles, from terse to prosaic.

To identify voice and tone in writing, you must consider word choice, sentence structure, point of view, and rhetorical devices. Your word choice reflects your voice and tone, with formal words conveying a serious and respectful attitude and informal words conveying a casual and friendly attitude.

Singing from your throat means taking shallow, fast breaths, while singing from your diaphragm means taking deep breaths from your chest. This reduced strain on the throat supports vocal chords and grants greater breath control and projection.

This manipulation is done by changing the shape of the vocal tract and does not affect the vocal folds when done correctly. Singing, in general, involves the manipulation of formant frequencies. It is what creates vowels and some consonants when you sing. So formant tuning is not a peculiarity of Tuvan throat singers.
